If 2020 was the year of silverware for Bayern Munich forward Robert Lewandowski, then 2021 must be for the records. On Saturday, just three months after breaking the all-time Bundesliga single-season goalscoring record, Lewandowski set a Bayern record for scoring for consecutive games with a goal.
Dating back to February of last season, Lewandowski has now scored in 16 straight games across all competitions for the reigning league champions. And not only did Lewandowski break German legend Gerd Müller's record, he did it in style with a hat trick in a 5–0 win over Hertha Berlin.
